What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 1/5 (Low).
Cosmetic or documentation issue. No expected health impact, but the manufacturer is correcting the affected products.
Our severity reasoning: The FDA classified this as a Class III recall, which indicates the product is unlikely to cause adverse health consequences. The issue is a documentation and testing deviation (missing stability testing) rather than a direct safety hazard like contamination or injury.
